Subject: [PATCH v6 05/15] staging: gpib: cec: Handle gpib_register_driver() errors

The function gpib_register_driver() can fail and result in a
semi-registered module and does not return an error value if it
fails.

Unregister the pci registering function in case gpib_register_driver()
fails and return the error value. Add pr_err() statements indicating the
fail and also the error value.
